I'm not sure that I like it all that much, although it helps with suicidal ideation and some other symptoms, it doesn't help much with anxiety and it leaves me feeling emotionally flat. I've been thinking about switching to Zyprexa. What's your thoughts?

Just simply based on casual observations at this board however, I think more people have had a lot more success with Zyprexa than with Geodon. Low dose Risperdal is another option, with supposedly less weight gain, but I personally view Zyprexa as the gold standard. Just my opinion.

John thanks for your response. I've been having problems with anxiety for the last few months and It has got worse just recently. I was wondering if Zyprexa might be any good for anxiety. It has rereally been unbearable lately. Did you suffer from anxiety and did Zyprexa help?
